his table for the souls that are saved

shut the gate

A
A

Bm
Bm

I refuse to think that my best
friend's going to Hell anymore
G
G

And condescend to offer
A
A

her a key to her salvation

Like it's something I have
G
G

and can afford
And I won't blame my parents
A
A

for clinging to the good

It helps that it makes sense

of it all
And believing in a story like

best to get by day by day
Bm

Bm
Bm

G

Bring us closer or further way
Verse 7
G
G

I understood the risk that asking
A
A

any kind of question
Bm
Bm

G
G

Could unravel me with one small fray
D
D

G
G

A
A

But I looked in my closet filled with ignorance,
intolerance
Bm

the message came
A
A

And I can't turn a blind eye to centuries
Bm
Bm

G
G

of conflict and wrongdoing in his name
D
D

His name
